Nagold Reservoir Lakeside Path

Highlight • Lake

It's easy to walk around.
If that's too much for you, you can take a shortcut over the dam bridge. The entire path is paved. On the eastern bank, you walk along the sidewalk next to the road. There are also several large parking lots here. Only the parking lot at the Erzgrube kiosk is subject to a fee.
